Given that this project is going to bundled with DMD some time in 
the future, I think that this response sees the forest for the 
trees. While those things would make the OPs life a little 
easier, hopefully, the number of people using dub would increase 
with its inclusion in DMD. I care more about ease of use for all 
the people who might start using dub in the future. Not all of 
these people would want to learn from dub --help.  I don't think 
I'm alone in believing that the dub documentation could be 
improved, especially with tutorials or examples.
